Is it specifically made for Jaguars? That looks like a Blacktop Jazzmaster in the photo...

Ah, my bad! It just seemed odd that it was called 'GWE-JAG' and then they used a different guitar to demonstrate it in the picture.

I didn't really think about the guitar inside the case either... they say it'll work with jag / jazz & jagmaster.

Gator Tweed works as well for Jaguars but it's a bit of a squeeze... you have to push the foam in slightly for the top horn drop in, but does the job

Good to see companies taking note. I guess it's due to all these new models recently.

I can only think of Hiscox who have produced a dedicated case for these.

SKB do a dedicated Jag case.

FYI- The case that comes with an AVRI Jaguar and Jazzmaster is the same case. The Jazzmaster fits more snug due to the longer scale. So any case that can fit a Jazzmaster can also fit a Jaguar.

It's a decent case; it's what I bought. I'd kinda like one of the storage chambers to have a lid, though.

It makes sense that more cases are coming out for the Jag/JM. Between the Squiers, Blacktop series, Classic Players, CIJ and AVRI, that's a growing market you could almost corner if it's a decent case.
